If you're going to carbonate in the keg, then there's no reason to add
priming sugar.

IMO, if they're considering using isinglass, then they don't really need
to
get rid of all of the yeast anyway, just most of it.  Even just a crash
chill in the secondary should take care of most of it.  Then you should be
able to keg without filtering and get it close enough to how it would be
if you used isinglass in the bottle.
